Mental Health Study | Myths About Mental Health
Jesus came to bring you hope and to BE hope to you and the people in your life. Jesus knows what you're going through and what the people in your life are going through.
John 11:35 is the shortest verse in the Bible, yet one of the most powerful. It simply says, "Jesus wept." For context, Jesus had learned that his friend Lazarus died. He knew that a miracle was just around the corner, but Lazarus' sisters, Mary and Martha, didn't know that. They were devastated, broken, and angry. Jesus wept because He felt their pain. He’s the perfect example of a friend supporting his friends in their time of need.
